The Tankers fan club was organized in 1958 by Elvis’ cousin, Bobby Smith, and was named after Elvis Presley’s Army tank corp. He asked Gary to be the president.

They encouraged fans to request Elvis songs on their local radio stations and vote for Elvis in all of the celebrity popularity polls and contests. Gary continued the newsletter for five years until he was forced to quit due to the rising costs of postage and health reasons in the late 1960s. In the late 1970s, Eddie Poole, who was at that time the president of the Graceland Fan Club, asked Gary to include a chapter entitled “Memories” in each of the fan club newsletters. $200-400

According to John Reznikoff, a leading expert in celebrity hair authentication, “the hair appears to match the hair in my collection [from same U.S. Army haircut] in coarseness and color … this is more than likely a genuine lock of Elvis’ hair short of a DNA test (often inconclusive) proving otherwise.” $8,000-12,000
